1/4 mile times
#21
i'm in a rush to find one since my 96 gt is busted and i have to drive the 03 cobra everyday. i still have the gt,which i plan on fixing and selling, but i want an lt1(much quicker) for daily duty. the problem is most have 110-120k miles. is that too high a mileage to start modifying?

I have 3:73 in mine but i need a good tune because my rpms rev up so quick that i bounch of the rev limiter from 2nd to 3rd gear...no problem from first to secong though....if you want 3:73 you want a good tune after...just my 2 cents!

well i guess the problem is mileage now. most i see have at least 100k miles on them, some a little over. TANGERINEta thinks thats too high of a mileage to start tinkering with it.
